A collection of manuals-only organ music covering the church's year from Advent to Epiphany, containing arrangements of core repertoire from the 18th- to 20th-century plus new pieces. This technically accessible music (approx. grades 4-5) is perfect for less confident organists and for use in churches with organs without pedals. Optional pedal parts are provided.

This volume of thirty-seven pieces is a major new resource ... Most organists will already own some of the commonly used pieces, but it is practical to have them all in one volume. And there are more than enough unusual choices to make the book worth having. Kudos to both compiler and publisher for the best organ anthology (in both quality of selections and production) I have seen in quite some time.

[Review of earlier edition: ] A new bible for wolf-lovers... Any lover of all things lupine is in safe hands, and will certainly enjoy the wonderful accompanying images by award-winning photographer Daniel J. Cox, who has a most delicious and painterly sense of colour and composition.... What makes this book most desirable and unique is that, with a meticulous seamstress's eye, Grambo interweaves biological facts with a colourful patchwork of lupine legends, fascinating artefacts (an illustration of a prowling wolf from a 13th century bestiary), and relevant quotes and songs.... There's much to learn from this gloriously "flickable" and readable book. Beautiful. Practical. Passionate. My subtitles for "Wolf."--Julia Bohanna, UK World Conservation Trust"BBC Wildlife" (09/01/2008)[Review of earlier edition: ] Shifting effortlessly between science and myth, with sociological, anthropological, and ethnological stops along the way, Grambo explores all sides of the wolf, from both lupine and human perspectives. The many illustrations, which include Cox's images of wolves in the wild, reinforce the premise of the text.--Nancy Bent"Booklist" (02/01/2006)[Review of earlier edition: ] Comprehensive study of the wolf not only explores the evolution and behavior... but dwells especially on the complex relationship between man and wolf... masterful photography.--Joy McDonell"Canadian Camera" (12/01/2005)[Review of earlier edition: ] [Grambo's] text is a great read, but Cox's photos tell much of the story here... These creatures are beautiful.--John Mark Eberhart"Kansas City Star" (12/04/2005)[Review of earlier edition: ] A terrific book... Grambo provides a fascinating account of the wolf's changing fortunes, from a kind of god-like creator to storybook villain to, most recently, symbol of hope. She uses creation myths, snippets from folk tales and literary references from cultures around the globe to illustrate just how intertwined man and wolf have been from the beginning. The book has beautiful photography by Daniel J. Cox, who captures the wolf in all its iconic glory -- howling at the sky, racing across the snow-covered landscape, cubs wrestling in their den.--Chris Sutton"Nature Canada" (09/27/2008)[Review of earlier edition: ] The real delights are the photos: close-ups of handsome faces, sweet pictures of mamma wolves and their cubs, and dynamic shots of the animals in action or getting together for a good howl.--Peggy Earle"Norfolk Virginian-Pilot" (12/21/2005)[Review of earlier edition: ] This beautifully illustrated, thoughtful book explores the intricate relationship between wolves and people.--Nicole M. Robertson"Oakland Press" (01/01/2006)[Review of earlier edition: ] Grambo weaves the history of wolves and humans, complimented by illustrations and Daniel Cox's photographs in a nicely done package.--Sharon Wootton"Olympia Olympian" (11/27/2005)[Review of earlier edition: ] Well structured, colorful and engrossing book... wide appeal to all readers who are curious about wolves.--Robert Smith"Science Books and Films" (03/01/2006)

"The problems involved in separating complex macromolecules require under­ standing not only the chromatographic process but also the physicochemical behavior of the solutes." This sentence from the pen of Phyllis R.Brown 1, University of Rhode Island, can certainly be applied to synthetic copolymers whose structure is very complex indeed. Thus it may be forgiven that a book on copolymer HPLC has been written not by a trainedchromatographer but by someone from the polymer side. The HPLC of synthetic polymers is often understood to mean only a synonym for size exclusion chromatography. The latter method separates polymers according to the size ofthe macromolecules and enables the molecular weight distribution of a sample to be evaluated. But as early as 1936, Mark and Saito attempted chromatographic fractionation of cellulose acetate on a charcoal-like adsorbent madefrom blood. HPLC adsorption chromatography was first applied to copolymer analysis by Teramachi et al. in 1979. Since then, another branch of polymer HPLC has arisen which has the capacity of separating copolymers bycomposition and enables the chemical composition distribution to be evaluated. The technique requires a suitable elution program and is mainly carried out as gradient elution.

Mohandas Gandhi gained the deep respect and admiration of people worldwide with both his unwavering struggle for truth and justice and his philosophy of non-violent resistance a philosophy that led India to independence and that was later taken up by the American civil rights movement. This volume presents Gandhi's own clear and consistent vision of that philosophy, which he calls Satyagraha literally, "holding on to the truth." Through Satyagraha, one brings about change by appealing to the reason and conscience of the opponent and puts an end to evil by converting the evil-doer.The book begins with an introductory explanation of Satyagraha, including a description of how it differs from passive resistance and what it has in common with the civil disobedience of Thoreau and non-cooperation in general. It proceeds with detailed discussions of discipline and self-control, including living simply, recognizing the unity of all loving beings, and serving one's neighbors wholeheartedly; the courage and training necessary for the Satyagrahi; successful on-cooperation and civil disobedience; political power and Satyagraha, the development of a non-violent army; the use and effectiveness of such techniques as non-payment of fines and taxes, social boycotts, fasting, sympathetic strikes, and other forms of non-cooperation; women and picketing; and many other topics.Invaluable to ethicists, political philosophers, students, and participants in the ongoing struggle for human rights, this inspiring book is as relevant today as it was when first published half a century ago."

The Garden City Movement provided a radical new model for the design and layout of housing at the turn of the nineteenth century and set standards for the twentieth century which were of international significance.The vision of the movement's founder, Ebenezer Howard, drew on many strands of political and utopian thought, and initially aimed at addressing the problems of an increasingly urban and dysfunctional society along `the peaceful path to real reform'.It took only five years, from 1898 to 1903 for the idea to take root in the open fields of North Hertfordshire, when Earl Grey proclaimed the Letchworth Garden City Estate open.Letchworth was followed by Hampstead Garden Suburb, Welwyn Garden City and numerous smaller developments, and Garden City ideas informed both inter-war housing policy and New Town planning after the Second World War. Present-day issues such as sustainable development and eco-settlements have their roots in the Garden City. Written by the leading authority in the field, this book tells the story of a major development in England's urban and planning history and provides a timely popular survey of the achievements of the Garden City Movement and the challenge of change. This will not only appeal to planners and conservation professionals, but also residents of the garden cities.

'[Mervyn Miller] has written a splendid account of the garden city movement for the informed enthusiast for architecture in a punchy, direct manner which is well illustrated with new and contemporary photography.' -- Janet Allen 'Richly illustrated, this book will appeal not only to planners and conservationists and those lucky enough to live in garden cities, but to anyone interested in architecture and preserving the best of the past.'
